Have a couple of transcription errors with my first quote post. There are only a couple of small edits required and I appreciate the assist.

Quote URL: https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/1257...

This should read:

“I've seen her in action," I said, rubbing a jaw. "One does not piss of Karma. She is most patient bitch I know. I mean that in the most flattering and scary sense possible”

P.S. Is there a more direct way to add these from Kindle books?

Hi Anthony

Before editing I just want to confirm - should this be piss of or piss off?

Ah. Nice eye. It should be "piss off"

And the review leaves me noting it should read "she is *the* most patient".

I truly appreciate Editors and Editing. Even my routine posts go through a couple.

Ok, done. Can you check that it now matches the book.

& I'm sure there is a way you can add quotes directly from your kindle but I don't know it. Googling is probably the quickest way to find out, otherwise please ask in the Help section. They have a section for kindles.

All good now. Thanks!

I posted a quote from Molly Clavering's novel Touch Not the Nettle, and realized that there were several typos (Is where there should have been Os, such as in the first sentence, "from the last days if Victoria's reign.")
I posted a corrected version, but can't find a way to delete the first typo filled one. Can you please delete it for me?

Hi Odette
Done. In future please post here for an incorrect quote to be edited, as most librarians prefer editing to deleting.

Hi everyone, this quote has 0 likes, so it would be great if it could be deleted. If not, it should read:

"Zuo Qianqiu buried his name, Xiao Fangxu has stepped down because of illness, and Lu Pingyan has grown old. Twenty years from now, where will the current Four Generals be? They’re all but waves crashing on the shore, each generation overtaking the last."

It was copied wrong so it repeats itself unnecessary. Thank you in advance!

#9 Edited the quote

Hi, could you correct this quote of mine?
https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/7395...

It should read:
"Opening to love will always involve risk, but a heart safe from pain is also locked to joy."

Corrections: add a space after the comma, and remove "also"

Thanks!
